    BASS COAST SHIRE COUNCIL WASTE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY 2015 – 2025 Version: 1.0 Date of issue: August 2015 Prepared For Bass Coast Shire Council 74 McBride Avenue Wonthaggi Prepared by Environmental Resources Management Australia Pty Ltd 18-38 Siddeley Street Melbourne Victoria 3000 Acknowledgement Bass Coast Shire Council wishes to acknowledge the community’s generous contribution of their time to the development of this report. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background Bass Coast Shire is the fastest growing local government area in Gippsland with the resident population of about 30,000, increasing to over 70,000 during peak holiday periods (www.forecast.id.com.au). The area also attracts visitors to Philip Island Nature Parks and the Motor Cycle Grand Prix and is well renowned for its special natural environment, with eco-tourism opportunities and major motorsports events attracting millions of visitors every year. The generation of waste is expected to increase in the future in line with projected population increases, which has been predicted to rise to approximately 45,000 by 2031, an increase of approximately 42%. This, coupled with a number of identified waste management challenges and issues provides significant drivers for consideration of a new waste management strategic direction and sustainability initiatives across the Shire. Purpose The Waste Management Strategy (WMS) has been developed as part of the commitment Bass Coast Shire Council has made to provide sustainable solutions for the collection, disposal and resource recovery from waste generated within the community. The Strategy’s main purpose is to guide the management of waste over the next 10 years, 2015 - 2025.

I am writing to object to the proposed application by Kalbar Operations Pty Ltd (Kalbar) for a mineral sands mine at Glenaladale. East Gippsland and in particular the Gippsland Lakes (an area of 354 sqKm) has long been a holiday destination for not only Victorians but internationals due to the uniqueness with it being the largest navigatable inland lake system in Australia. Being approx 300km from Melbourne a journey to this area can involve value added overnight stays. Visitation Economy: It is recognised by both Federal and State governments that the Visitation Economy is a major way to grow the East Gippsland economy in general for the long term making it a better place to not only visit but to live whilst creating business and job opportunities. Local Federal MP The Hon. Darren Chester estimates that in 2018 the Visitor Economy for Greater Gippsland generated over $1Billion from 6.4 Million visitors. That supported more than 10,000 jobs. https://darrenchester.com.au/east-gippsland-recovery-2030-plan/ Victorian State Minister for Fishing and Boating, The Hon. Melissa Horne, advises that recreational fishing in Gippsland “...has been measured to contribute $350 Million to the Victorian economy and supports more than 1,700 full time jobs”.

    Local Government - Submissions Bayside City Council Borough of Queenscliffe Colac Otway Shire Council Corangamite Shire Council East Gippsland Shire Council Glenelg Shire Council Greater Geelong City Council Hobsons Bay City Council Port Phillip City Council South Gippsland Shire Council Surf Coast Shire Council Marine and Coastal Act Consultation Paper SUBMISSION The Borough of Queenscliffe welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission on the Marine and Coastal Act Discussion Paper (Discussion Paper). There are a number of proposals in the Discussion Paper that are of particular concern to the Borough of Queenscliffe. This submission focuses on these concerns. The Discussion Paper proposes reforms to the existing governance arrangements with respect to Coastal Crown Land management. It is our view the reforms will not simplify the arrangements, rather add to local Councils’ responsibility. For example, the phasing out of Regional Coastal Boards and essentially replacing them with Regional and Strategic Partnerships (RASPs) which can be established by the Minister will lead to Council’s potentially taking the lead role in the RASPs. RASPs may be established to address specific issues and the resource impact to local coastal Councils could be significant, particularly if more than one RASP is established at any time. Another suggestion in the Discussion Paper is phasing out of Category 2 Committees of Management (CoM) and either transferring their responsibilities to Councils or establishing smaller CoMs pursuant to Section 86 of the Local Government Act. It is our view that either option does little to address the current lack of appropriate support to smaller CoMs and, in simple terms, transfers oversight and support responsibility of these smaller CoMs from the State Government to Local Government.
